Chapter 619: Chapter 351: Origins and Departures to Another World
On the way back from their journey.
The World Consciousness had already recounted to Chen Sheng its confrontations with the Heavenly Beings’ King over tens of thousands of years, using the briefest possible words.
If the facts were as it had described.
Then,
Homo sapiens were able to survive from tens of thousands of years ago until now, without turning into livestock in Heavenly Beings’ breeding grounds.
And now, when the Heavenly Beings’ King is about to arrive, Chen Sheng was able to have a temporary respite.
Both of these can be attributed to the arrangements left by the World Consciousness beforehand.
However,…
Chen Sheng could not be certain whether what the World Consciousness said was true or not.
The other party’s identity and purpose were unknown.
They merely talked at length about vague matters.
Naturally, Chen Sheng would not easily believe them.
Therefore,
Facing the World Consciousness, who was laughing as it explained.
He didn’t respond.
His poised gaze stared steadily at the World Consciousness, waiting for further explanations.
“Alright.”
The World Consciousness did not mind either.
Its body straightened slightly, seemingly out of habit.
Following it,
The gaze from within the fog looking at Chen Sheng became serious.
“Supreme Demon.”
“You must have heard this name before.”
Upon hearing the words,
The scene from Chen Sheng’s memory appeared in his mind.
The boundless outer space.
The colorful darkness.
And… that existence, which was the size of a galaxy and could not be perceived by the naked eye.
Supreme—
“Wrong.”
Before the thought completely dissipated.
Chen Sheng’s ear suddenly heard the sound of the World Consciousness.
Hmm?
The puzzled gaze fell on the other party.
“You seem to have mistaken a certain existence for the Supreme Demon.”
“But what I can tell you.”
“You… can never have seen the Supreme Demon.”
It seemed like the World Consciousness had guessed Chen Sheng’s inner thoughts and directly gave a negative answer.
“Why?”
Chen Sheng raised his eyebrow, not immediately believing the other party.
The World Consciousness had also said that he could come this far by relying on the Origin Power.
This was enough to prove that,
What the other party had said was not entirely correct.
However,
Chen Sheng merely grumbled inwardly, not questioning it.
As for the specific situation, he decided to wait for the World Consciousness to finish explaining before making his judgment.
“Let me explain in detail about what kind of existence the Supreme Demon is.”
“It transcends countless universes, standing above time and space, infinitely close to the definition of a god.”
“No one knows how the Supreme Demon was born, and in my personal knowledge, it has existed for countless eons since the birth of the oldest sentient life.”
“No one has seen the Supreme Demon with their own eyes.”
“No one has the qualification to talk with it.”
“My understanding of the Supreme Demon is only limited to its undying and innumerable subordinates, which are like locusts spreading across countless universes.”
“As for information about the Supreme Demon itself, I only know that it feeds on Origin Power.”
“Heavenly Beings, for example, serve to seek out worlds and seize Origin Power for it.”
“Yet among the countless subordinates, Heavenly Beings are the least conspicuous.”
“What makes you think that such a being would have the privilege to meet the Supreme Demon in person?”
Having said this,
Perhaps feeling that its concept was somewhat vague,
The World Consciousness hesitated for a brief moment, as if organizing its language.
When it spoke again, it gave an example.
“Let’s use you, Homo sapiens, as an example.”
“It’s like you have a business empire.”
“This empire is so powerful that it spans all industries on the planet, big and small, pervading every aspect of people’s lives, with billions of employees under its control.”
“So much so that the wealth you possess can shake the planet’s economic system.”
“Then… as the creator of this business empire, the sole decision-maker who holds all the shares.”
“Would you personally interview a janitor from the lowest level?”
“What if I say the Supreme Demon’s subordinate forces are countless times larger than this empire?”
“Would you still think that the Heavenly Beings have the possibility of seeing the Supreme Demon?”
As the words fell,
Chen Sheng fell silent.
His mind followed the description of the World Consciousness, conjuring up image after image.
In places he had never set foot in.
In a vast world he could not have imagined,
Existences like the Heavenly Beings, or even more powerful than they, were like locusts ravaging the land, destroying one world after another.
The world where he was born was just an extremely tiny part of it, like a speck of dust.
Even if his personal strength became extraordinary, he would still be an even smaller fraction of that speck of dust.
It seemed,
Both the race known as Homo sapiens and he being one of them,
Could not escape the fate of being swallowed up by the storm.
Chen Sheng was not sure if the World Consciousness was exaggerating in its account.
But for now,
The other party was the only way for Chen Sheng to learn about the world beyond the planet and a broader universe.
As the World Consciousness said,
He listened.
As for the specifics, they would be left for verification in the future.
“You should have realized by now.”
“At present, you are powerless even against the Heavenly Beings’ King.”
“Staying in this world will only result in a meaningless burial.”
Saying this,
The World Consciousness looked up at the office window.
The crimson light grew more blinding.
It seemed as if the entire world had been completely immersed in this color.
Seeing this scene,
The urgency showed on the face formed from fog.
“We don’t have much time.”
“Now my remaining strength can only open a space portal once, taking both of us away from this world.”
